Depends what you do.
There are also different types of LCD panels so that needs to be taken into account.
I run a 22" dell LCD w/ an IPS panel (same thing that's used in apple cinema displays) which is absolutely beautiful.

Do some research on your own. You're only going to get people's biased opinions here.
See what's out there. Narrow down your choices, read objective reviews from reputable websites, and most important go to a store and look at them in person before you buy.
Take a look at Apple, LG, Samsung, Dell, NEC, Viewsonic. Of course, I don't know anything about the compatibility of different, non-apple displays with your Unibody.

I'm just waiting for SnowLeopard's response: "Apple Displays rule! Only buy Apple. Everything else is crap!"
Disregard his biased opinion, follow the other posters' advice, do some research and see what is best at a price point you can afford. I've got a fairly old Dell 20" display, but its good enough for my needs.

if your like me and just can't afford to go with a Apple display, or a higher end IPS display then the HP w2408h is one of the better Consumer grade monitors around. This dell is also another good choice http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/...&cs=04&c=us&l=en&dgc=SS&cid=39888&lid=1022053
I actually meant that the right thing to look at is the minimal price/quality ratio given some minimal quality threshhold: Apple displays are not the best in their price range.And what get a NEC display that costs even more since it's Vista certified?
